I've set up a free chat room as a lot of folks were having trouble accessing IRC. Please join us at http://wwwl.meebo.com/room/netsquared/

You'll need an OpenID, but you can get one from http://myopenid.com.

Gabbly Channel Hack

So several NetSquared sessions are running using Gabbly. That's great for me (believe it or not, I don't have an IRC client at my fingertips), and I also figured out how to create a chat room on the fly for further random conversations. Just set up a Gabbly page on any URL - obviously, you probably want to use a NetSquared URL if talking about this conference. See the example below:

http://gabbly.com/http://www.netsquared.org/smokinggoat

Unfortunatley, Gabbly doesn't seem to support private messages. Any ideas? (Yes, besides, downloading an IRC client.... ;-))
